Answer:

Red blood cells, also referred to as red cells, red blood corpuscles, haematids, erythroid cells or erythrocytes, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system.

What do red blood cells do? Red blood cells are responsible for transporting oxygen from your lungs to your body's tissues. Your tissues produce energy with the oxygen and release a waste, identified as carbon dioxide. Your red blood cells take the carbon dioxide waste to your lungs for you to exhale.

What makes the blood look red?

Human blood is red because of the protein hemoglobin, which contains a red-colored compound called heme that's crucial for carrying oxygen through your bloodstream. ... That's why blood turns bright cherry red when oxygen binds to its iron. Without oxygen connected, blood is a darker red color.
